Sexy Sadie, what have you done

Sexy Sadie, ooh, what have you done

 

Hate cold showers. I'm sure it's good for the body, though, and ice baths are even better. When I was into long distance running, nothing would help my muscles recover better than a 20 minute ice bath.

It's absolute torture, though. I hate it. Hate it so much.

 

try not being a pansy.

been taking cold showers for a long time. now i know why i people think i look so young. true story brah.

 

Actually it jolts my asthma into action.

Warm to cold water seems the way to go, but this idea seems invested in the 'shock' part

 

try not having asthma then.

Spoiler

 

Yup. That does indeed sound made up.

Took a cold shower once. It was freezing out, and the hot water wasn't working. It sucked.

On the other hand, today was very hot, so I took a cool shower, if that counts, lol.

 

My Grandaddy built the railroad by his dayum self.

 

Well it could have been worse - dude could have been...

 

Spoiled Americans. Here in the Philippines majority of the people use cold water because they can't afford a water heater.

 

For those who haven't watched the video, skip to 2:11. It's the most important part of therapy.

 

I think we've solved the mystery of why Asians look so young.

Cold water isn't so bad. Besides it's not like switching the water to refrigerator temperature, but rather room temperature water. And I'm sure with how hot it is in the Philippines, cold showers aren't so bad.

I wonder if mr.hoboman takes cold showers in the winter.

 

I've taken a cold shower in the Philippines. It sucks just as much as taking one in North America.

 

Not a myth, but the medical industry wants to appropriate this info:

Haven't been to the Philippines so you're probably right, but I've lived in different SE Asian countries and I've always gone with cold showers with the exception of nights. The heat and humidity there are such crap.

 

Just did it this morning. The guru was right, gets warm as you start running =).

All joking aside, I feel great today. Confident rose.
